print meQuick Money and Items

Want purple and orange items without having to kill a single enemy? Once you get to "New Haven," head to the save/transport post near "Scooter" and save your game. Then, there are 2 red chests and 3 silver chest in town...4 of them on rooftops, and one that the claptrap rescue opens for you. Just loot them all, keep what you want, sell what you don't want and then save your game. Log off, then log back in to repeat the process. Check all the vending machines each time as they will offer great items as well.

Here is a rundown of the loot route from at the save/transport post near Scooter:

Chest

Where to find it

Silver Chest #1

From the save post, turn directly left and go up the stairs, keep going in the same direction, cross the wood plank and then jump the railing to the other building. Turn a slight right around the corner.

Silver Chest #2

After completing the Claptrap Rescue this Silver Chest will be in a little shed across the courtyard from the Bounty Board (you just have to crouch to get in there).

Silver Chest #3

From the save post go forward and go up the stairs where the dollar sign and arrow are. Hop on top of the washing machine, then on top of the roof with the big antenna. The Silver Chest is behind it.

print meBerserker Speed Exploit

Make sure you're in a fight with more than one enemy and your health is extremely low (10-20). Activate Berserker just before you enter Fight For Your Life! Mode, then kill someone to gain a Second Wind. If done properly, you should be able to run as fast as Brick can in Berserker mode AND you'll be able to fire your weapons. Note: you're not able to sprint while using this, but why would you need to anyway? Activating his Berserker mode again and finishing it, OR dying will cancel the effect.

print meDuplicate Items

To make a copy of any item you'll need a cooperative partner in a multiplayer game. Simply drop what you want to make a copy of on the floor, exit the game without saving, leaving your friend free to grab it. When you return, you'll have your copy of the weapon still, and your friend can hand you the other. This works on all guns, shields, and class mods, and can be done as many times as you need.

print meEasy 20,00 EXP

As soon as you are able to get a vehicle, find a safe place away from enemy spawn points and find a way to keep the trigger held down (tape? rubber band?). Just walk away for a few hours and after you have unloaded 100,000 shots from the vehicle you will get 20,000 exp.

print meEasy Escape After Defeating Sledge

After you've defeated Sledge (and collected the artifact), exit and save your game. When you start you're game again you'll begin at the save point at the very beginning of the mission. This way you don't have to backtrack on foot and you'll save a lot of ammo too.

print meGain Levels and Money Before Entering Borderlands

In the first scene, when you're getting the tour with the scrap robot, follow him all the way through to the small campsite with the car up on the lift next to the burning tires. Collect all the loot (guns, money) along the way and kill all of the guys. Once everyone is dead simply pause the game and go to exit. It will save your character (level & loot) and start you at the very beginning upon loading your game. You can repeat this as many times as you'd like!

print meItem Storage using an Alternate Character

An effective, but annoying, way to store your extra stuff is to create an alternate character that is only for holding your extra stuff. Just create a new character, load a co-op game with both your main character and your new level 1 character and give them the items you want to put up. Log back in to your level 1 character and give the items back to your main character when you need them. This can be really useful when you find weapons and items that are above your level, or are saving them to give to a friend's character.

print meNew Game +

Complete the game to unlock a New Game + mode. Some items and stats will carry over into the new game and enemies will be tougher.

print meReload Quickly

Watch your reload animation. As soon as the cartridge is removed (or rounds are being inserted), click the Right Stick (melee) and the gun will finish reloading. Do this to save time and possibly your life.

print meInfinite money and health

First of all you will need the money from one of the missions which when you pick up will appear as an item called 'inpenetrable' in your inventory. Then if its not in your inventory above the grenades drop or unequip your sheild. Then equip the money and keep dropping it until your hearts content. Picking all of it up will give you $388 a piece and increased health; all you have to do is top it up.

print meRestoring health and ammo

OK so i discovered this out of nowhere but if you have a good high level shield and a quick restoring health shield equip the high capacity shield and then drop it and equip the healing one. then hold x while looking at the high capicity one on the ground. If done right your health should restore at a rapid rate even when getting shot. I would recomend a hunter for this so when you kill something it heals you and jumpstarts the thing. The regenerating ammo only works for smgs but is helpful all the same just burn your ammo and it comes back. I think that ammo is regenerated when your health is full. If these dont work just try again. NOTE:IF YOU PRESS THE BACK BUTTON AND GO TO YOUR EQUIPMENT AND LOOK AT YOUR SHIELD IT CANCELS THE EFFECT!!! ALSO THE EFFECTS LAST THROUGH THE TURN OFF AND BACK ON SEQUENCES WHEN SHUTTING DOWN THE XBOX

print meshoot machine gun faster while driving the runners

not sure if this works with the vehicles on knoxx but i have a heavy gunner mod with 65% clip size and 50 FIRE RATE and the machine gun fires faster on the runner (when you pull the right trigger) so you can dish out more damage not confirmed with runner's launchers
